Dear Parents:
Please join us for National Catholic Schools Week, our annual celebration of what makes education at Cardinal Ritter outstanding.
We have a whole week of activities planned to show what our students are accomplishing and to celebrate the community we have built to educate tomorrow’s citizens and church leaders.
The theme of our celebration is “United in Faith and Community.” The theme encompasses the core products and values that can be found in Catholic schools across the country. Not only are we teaching students to become future servant leaders, faith-filled disciples and enriched citizens in our communities, educators are growing with them. In Catholic schools, we are all learners, servants and leaders. These shared qualities are what make Catholic schools work. They are what make Catholic schools succeed.
The theme also focuses on key elements of Catholic education, faith development, academic excellence and dedication to service. These elements set Catholic schools apart from other educational options. They are why families make sacrifices to provide their children with a Catholic education.
I am grateful every day for the teachers, staff, board members, parents and volunteers who make Cardinal Ritter a success. National Catholic Schools Week is a good time for all of us to thank them for their dedication and service.
God Bless,
Mrs. Hoy

Queridos padres:
Por favor, únase a nosotros para la Semana Nacional de las Escuelas Católicas, nuestra celebración anual de lo que hace que la educación en Cardinal Ritter sea excepcional.
Tenemos toda una semana de actividades planificadas para mostrar lo que nuestros estudiantes están logrando y para celebrar la comunidad que hemos construido para educar a los ciudadanos y líderes de la iglesia del mañana.
El tema de nuestra celebración es "Unidos en la fe y la comunidad". El tema abarca los productos y valores fundamentales que se pueden encontrar en las escuelas católicas de todo el país. No solo estamos enseñando a los estudiantes a convertirse en futuros líderes de servicio, discípulos llenos de fe y ciudadanos enriquecidos en nuestras comunidades, sino que los educadores están creciendo con ellos. En las escuelas católicas, todos somos estudiantes, sirvientes y líderes. Estas cualidades compartidas son las que hacen que las escuelas católicas funcionen. Son los que hacen que las escuelas católicas tengan éxito.
El tema también se centra en los elementos clave de la educación católica, el desarrollo de la fe, la excelencia académica y la dedicación al servicio. Estos elementos distinguen a las escuelas católicas de otras opciones educativas. Son la razón por la que las familias hacen sacrificios para proporcionar a sus hijos una educación católica.
Estoy agradecida todos los días por los maestros, el personal, los miembros de la junta, los padres y los voluntarios que hacen de Cardinal Ritter un éxito. La Semana Nacional de las Escuelas Católicas es un buen momento para que todos nosotros les demos las gracias por su dedicación y servicio.
Dios te bendiga,
Sra. Hoy

What do you enjoy most about being involved in our Campus Ministry Leadership Team? | |
My name is Caroline Escobar and I am a senior at Cardinal Ritter. Campus Ministry has a community of people who share my faith. This community is a space where I can grow in my faith and share the love of Christ with one another. We are responsible for many duties, such as preparing for the Mass. We also serve during retreats by taking on the role of student leaders and help fellow students comprehend and know the message of Jesus (the Good News.) (CR '24)

I am Harley Campbell, a junior at Cardinal Ritter. I chose to be a part of the Campus Ministry Leadership Team because I wanted to deepen my faith and help the Cardinal Ritter Community as well. Campus Ministry has been a wonderful experience as I have learned a lot about myself and my faith. Through retreats, I learned that guiding others as a group leader helps form my own beliefs. Helping set up for Mass has also been an enjoyable experience because it is an extension of the Mass and allows me to better understand and reflect on the graces that I receive. As a whole, being a part of the Campus Ministry Leadership Team has shaped who I am today and will continue to affect my future. (CR '25)
